Ok, but the main reason I don’t eat raw eggs is because they’re not very appetizing.

Dumb question: what’s a mind map? i’ve heard of it, and seen some examples, but still have no real idea what one is for.

Can't trust these companies to do what's right.

This has to be drilled into the collective consciousness as much as possible. There is no such thing as an ethical corporation, or an ethical company that is for-profit -- they simply cannot be ethical, they are amoral by design. If Target or Walmart or Netflix do something that is seen as positive, the only reason is a profit motive, not because they are moving towards being 'good'.

I should refine what I said. I think they genuinely believe many of the things they espouse, but (1) they espouse many things they don't believe in an effort to bring in outsiders with less harsh ideas before acclimating them to the intensity ("I'm as gay and liberal as they come, but even I can see how the trans movement has become largely exclusionary and radical") and (2) this is more about what the purpose of the community is, rather than the individuals. The individuals that are trolls can just be blocked, even if it becomes tedious when they grab new accounts. The community itself has a purpose, however, and that purpose can be either focused "internally" (members are discussing things amongst themselves) or "externally" (members largely discuss how to affect other communities). I think worries about freedom of speech or the silencing of honestly held (and expressed) beliefs are largely worried about the former (which may be more earnest), but a lot of the toxic communities are the latter, where there is very little that is expressed in earnest on the platform, because earnest conversations aren't the purpose of the community. They're little more than staging grounds on a given platform to try and either recruit outsiders or annoy their political opponents. I think this last aspect is the worst part, since communities like the_donald only really shared a communal love of annoying 'the libs' or left wing ideas in general, and the only purpose of the community was to be shitty.

A lot of free speech arguments falter in situations like these, imo, since they are predicated on the speech involved being genuine feelings/ideas/emotions. Troll groups like explodingheads and /r/the_donald are/were less about exchanging ideas and more about inflicting ideas on others. When the_donald was isolated, their community essentially started to die because there wasn't much genuine interest in discussing politics - their only interest was in 'redpilling normies'.

I must be in the minority here, I turned off sub-specific CSS as soon as I could.

It's not even like the object screams 'sexual organ'. Boston University archaeologist Curtis Runnels, who was not involved in the recent study, told Science the ornament looks "rather shapeless", and at first glance, it's hard to disagree.

really wish they’d said “at first glans”

Maybe, but another way of looking at it is that this already unprofitable company just lost (potentially) 5-10% of their marketable advertising attention. That makes their job of becoming profitable harder, and anything they do to compensate may well make their situation worse. (It could, obviously, also have no effect given how large Reddit already is)

of course the top reply is some nft bullshit

"might only provide 'milliseconds'

"Don't give me your mumbo-jumbo Mister Scientist - will the alarm go off or not?!"

in fairness, the title said “how”, not why

A more charitable interpretation is that the text that people thought would best train ChatGPT tended to be thoughtful and well-written posts like yours. Maybe you don't write like ChatGPT, but ChatGPT writes like you.
